Looking for Tires

08-12-2019, 09:59 AM

Silicone on sponge tires for HO cars seem to be getting harder to find, it looks like a number of makers or sellers have dropped out of the picture. A quick search turned up tires from Wizzard, Quicker and Victory (Victor Quinones). Does anybody out there have any makers to add to the list? I am mostly interested in T-jet SS type tires.

I checked out Harden Creek, when I clicked for details there was nothing there. Some dealers sell their own exclusive tires, others just re-brand tires by different makers. Wizzard sold Penn Valley slip-on tires for years as their PVT tires.

I have a pair of Ron's tires, but I was looking for ones that are more commonly available. I have posted this question on a number of slot BBs and gotten almost no answers. Either the outlook is bleaker than I thought or people are keeping mum.

I had several reasons for my post, one of those is that my tuning articles include links to various suppliers and I wanted to update those. I am interested in tires that are commonly available, rather than those that are made in limited quantities or are not sold in hobby shops or via e-commerce type sites.
